Hans Lamberts is StreetwiZe Partner but over the last two years he also became Master Trainer for Mobile School. Early this summer he took off to Thessaloniki, to kick-start a new mobile school.

If you would ask my peers to describe me in a few words, you would quite often hear the word ‘latecomer’. That’s not because of bad will, far from it, but rather from my own peculiar notion of the concept of ‘time’ which points to another, strong underlying desire: the desire to live life to the fullest and therefore to fill up even the smallest gaps in my agenda. In combination with the ‘natural born enthusiast’ that I am, this leads to a wide array of commitments for which the wish to say ‘yes’ is often much greater than the rational, conservative ‘no’. I love it, but it means that I’m always on the run (often not only in a manner of speaking). I end up eating my homemade sandwiches on the train and when I go for a ‘quick run around the block’ I (sub)consciously forget to include shower time. As a result, I am sometimes late for meetings with friends and I hope they forgive me.
